I fell into you,
tracing my fingers
along your scars.
Kissing each of them,
one by one, as they dissolved
on my lips and in my heart.
You'd meld into my skin.
Filled in
the spaces in me
that were hollow and bleak.
You created in me
an all-consuming fire
with a burn
that never grows weak.
We emulsify,
we set alight
and shine bright,
capturing everything
in our wake.
We blend
and transcend,
never to bend or break.
We are a wonder,
instinctively drawn
to each other's vivid hues.
Bodies moved to
some unnamed, unheard rhythm.
We collided and blazed blue.
